I haven't been able to sleep. I'm really tired, but the cold type aspects of my remaining illness are pestering me. I've been reading the news online, and there's a new report on the 2nd Season Justice League DVDs that has me pissed; check it out here. Justice League season 1 was animated in full screen; the widescreen airings were matted. But from season 2 on the show was animated in widescreen; a fullscreen version cuts out a lot of information - sometimes cool cameos by heroes aren't seen because of this cut off effect; Joss only knows what else it could compromise; it's disgusting! Hopefully it's just a mistake.

I'm thirsty. But my fever has still not returned! ;-) I think it's really gone this time.

I can't believe it's March already.

I work today, then have Thursday off. I work Friday, and then have Saturday off. I'm not going to do anything on my days off, but try to rest and eat good - try to get the last of whatever this thing is, behind me. I'm bummed that I didn't get to work Sunday night - I've been doing that for so long now that it seems odd that I wasn't there, but I can honestly say it was for the best that I wasn't there.

I went to work on Wednesday, and before my shift ended, my throat was 10 times better than before. There was a scary moment where it sounded like I was losing my voice, but that passed rather quickly, and I was constantly drinking water to avoid the painful dry feeling that I keep getting. It was nice to work with Matt & Jeff, Bryan, Joe & Andrea. ;-0) After Mark picked me up I deposited a little over $80.00 in the bank, and then we came home. I've been watching Garak related episodes of DS9, and I watched "The Wire" before taking a nap.

Mark had bought me a white chocolate bunny from Meijer after I had expressed interest in one (thanks Mark), which I snacked on later, though I didn't eat all of it. There's only so much white chocolate I can take, but I ate most of it. It was good to taste it after so many years. My grandmother used to buy pounds of different chocolates and we'd melt them & pour them into molds for Easter - I always ate a lot of it during the process and it made not enjoy the stuff as much. So...that's my white chocolate story.

I finished the pre-DS9 section of the Garak Book. Then I watched "Second Skin" & "Civil Defense". I know I took a break, and had something to eat... Then I watched the first part of the fantastic Garak based 2-parter "Improbable Cause"; I'll later watch the 2nd half: "The Die Is Cast" - then I'll have finished off the first 3 season episodes of Garak. I've skipped his Mirror Universe episodes as it isn't the same character - and I also skipped over "The Search, Part II" as it's not really him either. I'll most likely watch "Way Of The Warrior, Parts I & II", "For The Cause" & "Broken Link" for Garak episodes from Season 4. The other 4th Season episodes to feature Garak ("Our Man Bashir", "Shattered Mirror" & "Body Parts") are either not really about Garak, or are about aspects of the character not relating to Cardassia.

The Justice League rumor that bothered me yesterday has proven to be a big mixup, and that's good news. There has also been news that there will be a couple more single disc JLU releases before the 1st Season Set, which I think is lame, but I've also heard it said that Bruce Timm has stated that the First Season Set would be out before the end of this year, which is good; that's 3 seasons of Justice League in 1 year; not bad at all. I'm wondering how Batman Beyond will fare this year? The first season set will be out this month, but beyond that there's no news. Superman will finish it's run in JUNE, and a new DTV "Brainiac Attacks" will be out sometime this year. The entire DCAU Batman series is available already. Hopefully after the BB & JLU sets are completed (or even before that) we'll see the releases of Static Shock, The Zeta Project & the Gotham Girls/Lobo webisodes in DVD Boxed Sets.

My throat hasn't hurt at all today. Yet I can still feel that something is going on in there. lol Hopefully this will pass as well. That would be awesome. ;-0) I really want to work on Sunday, but I'm torn; I really want to watch the Oscars. Last year I taped them, but then I didn't ever watch them, because people ruined them for me. :-0( Maybe I'll get some writing done today. I rented Harry Potter 4 last night, which is due back today (it comes out on Tuesday) and I do want to see the movie again, but I'm not sure I'll have the time.

I didn't watch HP4. I'll probably rent it again Sunday night, just after midnight, so it will be due back Tuesday. My right arm hurt all day on Thursday; it aches, but I'm not sure why. My throat continues to improve. I'm meeting my friend Ben tonight to talk & hang out. And I may see Howie tomorrow. And that's all I've got planned for now. My arm is really bothering me.

So, I realized that most the times that I can't sleep, I'm really hungry. This never used to happen, because I would eat before I went to sleep, but now I can't. It's really annoying. I would have been in bed an hour ago, but I couldn't sleep, so I ate, but now I have to wait for awhile before I can sleep, even though I'm exhausted, and I could sleep right now. blah.

I work today. It will be good to see DJ. I work with DJ, Bryan, Bobby, Joe, Heidi & Pat. I might see Andrea too, depending on how late I'm there. That's cool. I haven't seen Heidi in weeks.
